When other companies' products crash and burn, rarely do CEOs tweet about them. But we all know Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk isn't an ordinary CEO.

SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket had a successful launch last week, but the craft took a hard landing into a floating barge. How hard? New images released by Musk over Twitter show it was pretty rough. The rocket burst into flames when it hit the platform.

Musk contends the hard landing was caused by the rocket's lack of hydraulic fluid. SpaceX used last week's launch as a way to test the feasibility of a reusable rocket, which would dramatically cut down the costs of space travel.
